Be nice and respect the maintainers' time. ❤️
Please read this whole thing. Most of this applies to any repo on GitHub. 🙏
Code is not the only thing you can contribute. I truly appreciate contributions in the form of:
- Fixing typos.
- Improving docs.
- Triaging issues.
- Reviewing pull requests.
- Sharing your opinion on issues.
- Give the pull request a clear title and description. It's up to you to convince the maintainers why your changes should be merged.
- If the pull request fixes an issue, reference it in the pull request description using the syntax
Fixes #123
. - Make sure the “Allow edits from maintainers” checkbox is checked. That way I can make certain minor changes myself, allowing your pull request to be merged sooner.
Always write a clear log message for your commits. One-line messages are fine for small changes, but bigger changes should look like this:
$ git commit -m "A brief summary of the commit
>
> A paragraph describing what changed and its impact."
Thanks
